The tower of money / Forteca pieniądza

Best skyscraper in Central and Eastern Europe. Why? The main reason, apart from getting LEED® Gold certificate, is the original structure. The vertical parts seen on the picture are the stair cases and elevators. Separating them from the main body of the building enhances security of its users. Regularly those communication lines lie in the center of any skyscraper. In case of fire it is not as safe as here.

In eyes of an urbanist, Rondo 1 (as the building is called) looks quite good in a City. It is situated next to a wide street and closes a view from the west as a dominant (Role of a dominant structure). Moreover it doesn’t crush the city in wider view, as National Stadium or PKiN do so.

It is one of the best places for an office in Central Europe if you have a prestigious global brand, and many such companies rent there even several floors.
